ASSHOLE PRANK OUTCALLER IN MCKINNEY

[LoveNHorny]

OP,
I understand the need to vent about this, and I feel for you girl (and thank you for not putting this in Alerts, btw). Clearly, you made a drive only to get the runaround, and jacked with. But let me hit you with some "cup is half full."

There's a little bit of batshit crazy in this, and I'm sure you've heard one of my favorite quotes: "You can't fix crazy." I'm just thrilled for you that you are ok. You weren't robbed, physically harmed, or truly cheated & mistreated. You weren't stung by Uncle Leo. You owned you're own part in it, that being not screening this child (lifting your shirt outside...pleeease), so you're good!

Don't let you son's toys interfere with your bill budget, and stay ever-vigilant with your screening. In my humble opinion, you dodged a bullet because it could'a been worse!

You're Safe!!! Now, rock on!

How does one spend $400 at Six Flags? Not trying to flame, but seriously, how is that possible? Apparently, the last time I was at Six Flags, I didn't do it right. haha

Sigh...it could have gone into savings or make IRA contributions. Maybe I'm just too cheap and thrifty. :-(

$170 tickets for me my 6 year old and my 9 year old. Then we figured it was gonna get warmer later in the day so $80 in the gift shop for sweaters. $40 gas $20 parking 2hot dogs $14 cotton candy $7 played the games so both of my babies got stuffed animals notthe stupid small ones either lol. Slurpies ar $5 each we didnt even get the flash passes, but the crowd wasnt bad so we were good. A fun filled day we had a blast though it was worth every cent.

I think we should all put our money together and open a Six Flags. That place is a gold mine!

Not hijacking the topic but it's pretty easy to bust the bank at an amusement park these days. Try going to one of the parks in Orlando and see what $400 will get you. OMFG...gone in a flash! I've also found that being prudent with your $$ at an amusement park (it's for the kids, right?) can quickly ruin the experience (not to mention the fun) for everyone.

Sorry to hear about your bad luck. Hope it gets better.
